"$23, excluding tax and shipping, just the FOB price of the ore." Yun Fei immediately added to Shen Wenhua in front of him.

This price is what he is going to quote at will, and then he is going to negotiate with the Ministry of Mines or those state-owned steel factories slowly. The reserve price in his mind is only between nineteen and twenty dollars.But the current situation has changed. The three major mining companies are planning to export iron ore to China at a price of [-] US dollars per ton, which also does not include freight and taxes. The [-] US dollars is the FOB price.

"Mr. Yun, is this price still negotiable?".Shen Wenhua frowned and thought about it, then asked Yun Fei.

The price of $23 is not too high for them.

After all, it is much more difficult for these private units to buy iron ore than those state-owned units, and the price is also much higher.The ore is imported by the Ministry of Mines as a whole, and then distributed to major steel plants, just to prevent these steel plants from vicious competition "" .s.

Private factories in China cannot be compared with state-owned factories. In the eyes of those leaders, one was raised by his own mother and the other was born by his stepmother. The treatment they receive is fundamentally different.Shagang Group's business has become more and more prosperous in recent years, but there is not enough ore.Otherwise, after hearing that Yun Fei had 700 million tons of ore in his hands, Shen Wenhua wouldn't have chartered a plane directly to the capital in such a hurry.

The price of 23 US dollars per ton is not very high, at least it is much cheaper than Shagang Group taking ore in the hands of the state, and it will be much cheaper if you add the freight.

Anyone, when buying something, knows that this thing is very cheap, and everyone hopes that the price will be even cheaper.

"Why, Mr. Shen thinks our price is too high?" Yun Fei asked Shen Wenhua very calmly about his thoughts.There is nothing dissatisfied.After all, everyone is like this. The cheaper the price of raw materials, the lower the final sales price of the products produced, which will make the products more competitive in the market.

"Mr. Yun, I don't think the price is too high, but the cost of transporting these ores from West Africa to our country is too high..." Shen Wenhua did not directly say that the price is too high, but turned a corner. The transportation distance is too long.

From West Africa to China, it is necessary to use giant transport ships to transport these ores to reduce transportation costs.It must take the Cape of Good Hope route in southern Africa, then enter the Indian Ocean, and enter China from the Strait of Malacca.The distance to take this route is very long, and the transportation cost is also very high.

The price of these ores transported from there to China will be two to three times higher than that from Australia. The price of 23 US dollars per ton, plus transportation costs and so on. After arriving in China, this price is not much cheaper than the price of the three major mining companies. .

Many domestic steel companies purchase these ores.It is often calculated based on the arrival price. After all, there are special transportation companies that transport those ores to some ports in China.

"If it's not because the journey is too far away, Mr. Shen, do you think it's possible to buy mines at this price? Don't say anything else. Even if the shipping cost is four dollars a ton, plus taxes and so on, the price will not exceed 28 in the end U.S. dollars..." Yun Fei thought that the price he asked for was very fair.

Internationally, super-large Capesize bulk carriers are generally used to transport these ore raw materials.In this way, about 15 tons can be transported at one time, and the transportation cost can be effectively reduced. The only downside is that these transport ships cannot pass through the Suez and Panama Canal.

That is.Not only ore, when China imports other bulk goods, it is often only possible to use this mode of transportation.Whether you are looking for domestic ocean shipping companies or international ones, these prices will not be too high.

If he has enough cash flow to pile all these ores there, in a few years, at most in [-], the price of these ores will exceed [-] US dollars per ton.In particular, the price of Rio Tinto, the largest mining company in the world, is much higher than the price in the general market.

Hearing Yun Fei's words, Shen Wenhua fell silent.

Yun Fei was telling the truth.

But now the domestic ore price is almost 28.Unless the three major mining companies do not raise prices for China, once the price is raised, the price given by Yunfei will be far lower than the price in the domestic iron ore market.

Although a ton of ore is only a few dollars cheaper, it is equivalent to tens of dollars in RMB. If one ton of steel is smelted, this cost will save hundreds of dollars.

"Mr. Yun, we want all these ores!" Shen Wenhua thought for a while, and quickly made a decision.

"Do you want 13 tons of copper ore too?".Yun Fei is not surprised that Shen Wenhua made a decision so quickly. It is absolutely impossible to turn a small workshop with only one production workshop into the giant it is now without a little bit of courage. of. "In addition, all these iron ores have to be paid in cash, and there is no problem with RMB settlement."

Upon hearing Yun Fei's words, Shen Wenhua was really embarrassed.

More than 700 million tons of ore, the US dollar is 35 million, converted into adult currency, this is a huge amount of [-] billion!

A company like Shagang is not like Yun's Holdings. They don't have much cash reserves at all. It is not easy for a private unit like them to spend 35 billion at one time.Especially the various shareholders, few can accept such a big deal.

"Mr. Yun, can this fund..." Shen Wenhua very much hoped that Yun Fei could extend the time limit for this payment.In the past few years, many large domestic enterprises have been expanding crazily, and most of them are carrying a lot of debt.

The asset-liability ratio of Shagang Group has exceeded 50.00%. To acquire the ore in Yunfei's hands, there is no other way except for loans.

"No. First-hand money, first-hand goods. Once transported by a ship, the payment for a ship will be settled. If it is not a problem of capital turnover, I will let him store these ores for a few years, and the price will at least increase several times by then!" Yun Fei was telling the truth, "This afternoon, Baosteel's vice president in charge of purchasing, Mikaile, will come here. Mr. Shen, I'm not here to raise the price. In this regard, I will sell as much ore as you can mobilize funds. , If you can’t mobilize funds, there’s no other way.”

These companies have never been in arrears of payment when purchasing abroad, but this is not the case when purchasing domestically.

It is extremely difficult to get the money back.

That's billions, not millions or tens of millions.

Only with these funds can the company continue to operate the Mauritanian project.In the next few years, Yun's Holdings will need tens of billions of funds to turn over the domestic projects in Mauritania.

What's more, if it is not for capital turnover, these ore clouds will have a market even if the price is raised to 25 US dollars per ton.There are too many steel factories in China!Yunfei just wanted to sell it all at once.Money can never be earned by one person.

Shen Wenhua naturally knew that Yun Fei was not lying to him, they and Baosteel also rely on imported ore to support their production, and now Baosteel is also short of ore!

"Mr. Yun, can you let me go back and discuss this matter?" Shen Wenhua said to Yun Fei almost gritted his teeth.This matter is really too big. In terms of capital, they have no way to compare with Baosteel. Behind Baosteel is the whole country.

"There is no problem with this. I will reply to Baosteel after a week." Yun Fei said to Shen Wenhua very seriously.

Compared with state-owned factories, he is more willing to cooperate with these private enterprises.What to do is far more efficient than state-owned units.Moreover, although a group company like Baosteel quickly dispatched a vice president, Yun Fei estimated that it was probably Lao Zhu or someone from the mining department who greeted him, or a random buyer would be good.

However, Boss Yunda guessed wrong this time.

Mikaile didn't have the awareness of the high-level executives of a large state-owned factory who had no one in his eyes at all. When he arrived in Rongcheng, he dialed Yunfei's number as soon as he got off the airport.Invite Yunfei to meet immediately and start negotiations.

This immediately made Yunfei feel that there should be a big problem in the negotiations between the Ministry of Mining and the three major mining companies.

Mikael is in his 40s. He is a tall, strong and capable middle-aged man.The most important thing is that this person is not like the other guys in the system that Yun Fei met, who looks like the boss and his second child.

Therefore, the talks between the two parties were very harmonious.

"Mr. Yun, can you take a look at the goods first? If these ores can really reach the level you said, even if the price is a little higher, it's not a problem." After listening to Yun Fei's request that all ores be After transporting away one ship and paying for one ship, he didn't say anything about Yun Fei's wishful thinking. "In addition, if there is no problem with the ore, we can pay 60.00% of the funds in advance when loading the first ship!"

The boss of the state-owned factory is rich and powerful.

This is more than 30 billion funds.

60.00% is already more than 20 billion. As long as Yunfei can keep these ores, the 5000 million US dollars of these ores will not need to be paid by Yunda boss himself.Baosteel has enough foreign exchange in its hands.

"Of course. Whoever sells something has to let the buyer see the goods." Yun Fei said with a smile.

"In addition, Mr. Yun, I heard that your company has obtained a lot of mining rights in Africa?" Mikael asked Yunfei very seriously.
